and I'm usually forest green, is there a reason, I checked my setting and apart from the fact that the colour currently in use isn't even listed, Forest Green is still ticked! Any advice gratefully received!
Thank you!

See what I put in brackets. Smile

Same as auntie, my colours were fine through all of the fiddling.

Also, I started a separate thread, but in case it is related to the fiddling - the "latest post by" bit of formatting on the chat homepage is wrong - part is missing. Giant and hidden ads remain annoyingly unaffected

GinAndOnIt · 25/10/2016 14:52

I've never been able to find a way to have the OP a different colour other than white, which is a PITA frankly. What am I missing? The Customise bit has nothing related to colour at all on my page Confused

cozietoesie · 25/10/2016 14:55

Did you start this account recently? (If memory serves, all those who registered after a certain time - or eg re-registered post Jeffreygate - have been given a 'Little' Customise. The people who had the original 'Big' Customise with lots of options have been grandfathered in.)

GinAndOnIt · 25/10/2016 14:58

I've been here about two and half years cozie but this name is fairly new.

cozietoesie · 25/10/2016 15:11

Hmm. That doesn't seem recently enough to me. Who can tell though? Smile

BitOutOfPractice · 25/10/2016 15:13

I'm salmon pink too, even though I have forest green ticked. Me no likey! Sad

see also this thread: www.mumsnet.com/Talk/site_stuff/2748703-Update-to-webchat-guest-colours

basically there is a bug that where you previously had customised colours they are now showing a different hex value (the code bit which = the colour) whereas they should have a value to match the text labels in the drop down menu...

Ginkypig · 25/10/2016 15:22

I'm meant to be forest green

Op is pink (it's stayed the same)

I am now the most hideous shade of salmon.

I'm very put out mnhq! sort of

ExitPursuedBySpartacus · 25/10/2016 15:27

Well I used to be dark lavender and I'm not anymore.

GinAndOnIt · 25/10/2016 15:28

Maybe because I'd never used the customise settings, I lost them? It seems strange that MNHQ wouldn't have the OP in a different colour anyway. I don't care what colour, just different to everyone else would be useful. My posts also don't highlight when I'm on the iPad either.

cozietoesie · 25/10/2016 15:32

It sounds as if things have just SNAFU'd for you generally. Wink

Ginkypig · 25/10/2016 15:34

See hideous!

I'm salmon pink!
cozietoesie · 25/10/2016 15:41

Well that's beige to me. Smile

Thornrose · 25/10/2016 15:48

OP is suddenly salmon pink for me, yuck! Same colour as you Ginky. I'm scared of customise as all manner of strangeness happened last time us oldies tinkered with it! Grin

AnchorDownDeepBreath · 25/10/2016 15:48

I don't think I'd eat salmon that colour Wink

FiveGoMadInDorset · 25/10/2016 15:50

Its awful, I am struggling to differentiate between OP and other posts

Thornrose · 25/10/2016 15:53

I still have forest green for op checked in customise! But it's not forest green?

cozietoesie · 25/10/2016 15:56

I wouldn't even offer it to the dog, Anchor. Grin

Thornrose · 25/10/2016 15:57

Ok changed it to olive which is marginally better than sickly salmon. Thank goodness I'm still dark lavender! (note to self...get a life) Grin

BoneyBackJefferson · 25/10/2016 16:00

mine was forest green, and now salmon pink.

I liked forest green.

gillybeanz · 25/10/2016 16:05

I'm usually green but salmon pink now too.
Why are we all changing?
I can't remember how to change colour now. Sad
I'm dyslexic with Irlen Syndrome and my colour is green. Can i have it back again, please.

LagunaBubbles · 25/10/2016 16:20

I liked forest green, it was nice and easy to see.

AllMyBestFriendsAreMetalheads · 25/10/2016 16:31

OP posts are in brown for me, and this post is a blatant check to see what my own look like so feel free to ignore me Grin

cozietoesie · 25/10/2016 16:34

Well then? What are you? Grin
